Manchester United team news vs Everton: Eriksen available, Weghorst benched

For the first time in over two months, Manchester United have Christian Eriksen in their matchday squad.

The Dane – who is on the bench - is available for Erik ten Hag as they face Everton at Old Trafford in the Premier League’s early kickoff on Saturday.

Initially, there were fears that Eriksen, who suffered the injury during an FA Cup match against Reading, was going to be sidelined for a very long time.

Rashford starts up front while Weghorst – who has been under criticism for what has been termed as underperformance - is benched.

The Red Devils’ win over Brentford on Wednesday was their first victory in the Premier League since February 19, and Marcus Rashford's goal was also the first league goal United had scored since defeating Leicester 3-0 at Old Trafford.

Meanwhile, Sean Dyche has drafted his starting XI without Abdoulaye Doucoure, who was sent off during their match against Tottenham Hotspur.
